Chapter 523: Trouble in paradise? (1)
"Huh? Yue?" Cheng Yu found the name familiar but no matter how hard she thought about it, she couldn’t remember. She inched closer to Lanni and asked, "Who is Yue?"
"Han Xichen and Xiaoshi’s daughter. What a poor memory." Lanni called her out for having the memory of a goldfish but she could not be blamed. She had only met Han Yue once at Xiehan’s welcome party. How the hell was she supposed to remember her when she rarely heard anything regarding Han Xichen and Xiaoshi?
But when she looked over at the adorable little girl, she had to admit that she looked like a tiny version of Xiaoshi. "Ah, yes she does look like Xiaoshi’s daughter. She even has her mother’s red hair."
Red hair was becoming more common in the Ji family lately, Lanni started wondering what color her own children might have when she had them—not that she had a particular preference. Her own hair was no longer its natural color after all. It kept growing out too fast whenever she dyed it and would have conspicuous black roots within just a few days, so she opted to let it grow and dyed the tips silver. Her kids could simply do the same if they wanted to.
Cheng Yu continued observing Linhou who had just received a toy from one of the professionals taking care of them. Instead of playing with the tiny car, he stuffed it into Yue’s little hand and smiled. "How adorable. Your kids found each other and became friends."
Although the mothers were no longer awkward around each other since they were not pining for the same man anymore, they were not the closest of friends either. They would greet each other briefly when they had to and each mind their business afterwards. Apparently, they would probably not become friends any time soon.
"Xiaoshi must be nearby. I’ll give her a call." Lanni pointed it out based on Yue’s presence.
She dialled Xiaoshi’s number and sure enough, the latter was in the store. "Hey, Lanni. I was about to give you a call. I saw Xiaomu around and thought you must be here with her."
"I came shopping with Luna and Xiao Yu." She informed the latter, so she would decide whether or not to come over even with Luna around.
